Today’s Top Ten Tuesday topic asked which Bookstores\/Libraries I’ve Always Wanted To Visit<\/a> (in no particular order):<\/p>\n

  1. Shakespeare & Co. in Paris (France’s most famous English-language bookstore)<\/li>\n
  2. The Book Barn in Niantic, Connecticut (I’ve driven past this used bookstore many times over the years, but somehow never stopped in. I have been to a different, unrelated used Book Barn in Amity, which may explain the oversight.)<\/li>\n
  3. Bart’s Books in Ojai, California (it’s mostly outside)<\/li>\n
  4. Wild Rumpus in Minneapolis (a kids’ bookstore)<\/li>\n
  5. Kitchen Arts & Letters (NYC cookbook shop)<\/li>\n
  6. John K. King Used & Rare Books in Detroit<\/li>\n
  7. Left Bank Books in St. Louis<\/li>\n
  8. The Last Bookstore in L.A. (it looks like a museum)<\/li>\n
  9. Murder by the Book in Houston (mysteries!)<\/li>\n
  10. Parnassus Bookshop in Nashville (one of the more famous indies, because it’s co-owned by Ann Patchett)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
